Essential before optional.

Strictly necessary storage and similar technologies may be used to operate the store, preserve security, remember a local planning choice, render a requested route, and complete a requested checkout handoff. The local Design Lab plan is a browser convenience, not an account, order, or server record.

Optional analytics, advertising, profiling, or session-replay tools are not enabled unless their provider, purpose, data, duration, lawful basis, international transfer, retention, and control are disclosed and consent is obtained where required. The final provider list remains [CONFIRM AI PROVIDER] and [CONFIRM DATA RETENTION] for any future tools.

The final notice must explain how a visitor can refuse or withdraw optional consent, how essential technologies differ, which browser controls apply, and how changes are communicated. Do not describe the store as “no tracking” if optional analytics or provider cookies are later added.
